Chapter 1307: Breaking off the engagement might be a mistake

"Is that the best you can do? Did your mother bleed so much just to birth a donut?" Ginnie remarked, arching a brow as she watched Hugo's reaction.

"Is it too much?"

Hugo shook his head before grinning. "It's perfect. Holy shit, Ginnie. You're really good at this."

"Hehe." Ginnie blushed a little and sheepishly tucked a portion of her hair behind her ear. "In case you don't know, I watch a lot of movies with mean characters as study materials."

"Wow..." Hugo was in awe, clapping his hands slowly before glancing down at his food. "By the way, Ginnie."

"Yes?"

When he looked up at her, his face showed dismay. "Are the portions here always this small? Or is this some sort of sample before they serve the real food?"

"Senior Hugo, aren't you rich?" she asked out of pure curiosity. "I mean, obviously, you're broke. But your parents are rich, aren't they?"

"So?"

"Haven't they ever taken you to a fine dining restaurant?"

"Ginnie, did you forget I got enlisted when I was eighteen?" Hugo frowned. "My dad takes my mom on dates to places like this, but he never brings us kids. He's mean."

Ginnie chuckled, only now realizing how close Hugo was to his father despite his complaint. "Well, that makes sense." She rocked her head side to side. "This is the actual serving size."

"Seriously?" Hugo gasped in horror. "Then how come it's so expensive?"
